Application Guide: FLAME RETARDANT CABLES
■With long-term use wires and cables, short circuits or fire may occur, which can make the cable combustible, causing fuel fire or damage to equipment. Thus it is necessary for cables to have properties which ensure that it will not spread flames or become flammable over a period of time. This is called the incombustibility of the cable, also known as being flame retardant. If a cable lacks flame retardant properties, fire can cause serious consequences. Byson undertake a proprietary flame test lab, including two different standards UL 1581 and IEC60332.
■The purpose of the fire test of cable is to examine the cables’ ability to stop the spread of the flames and to test the flame retardant properties of the cable. This test is necessary and very important. The cable industry uses a wide range of fire tests; UL1581 VW -1, IEC 60332 flame retardant and smoke density test.
